According to the spokesman of the provincial government, Charles Mbutamuntu, the speculation of the prices of the goods of first need on the market and of the acts likely to create the insecurity are at the base of postponement of the confining of the city on a later date.

However, barrier measures taken within the framework of the prevention against the epidemic remain of strict application. Gentiny Ngobila had intermittently issued 3 weeks of a total confining. Since the appearance of the first case of Covid-19 in Kinshasa, last 10 March, the number of people tested positive with the cornavirus is 58 among which 6 deaths, according to the last statistics of the INRB.
